Re: kern/58088: Kernel loading is interrupted.

Yes, the zfsroot ramdisk doesn't have the firmware that nouveau(4)
needs, and I guess we don't have a mechanism for getting it out of
another file system like the one the ramdisk was found on.  Annoying!

It is possible to build the zfsroot ramdisk with firmware.  I have the
attached patch in my netbsd-9 tree, which I had forgotten about.  The
patch does it for cgdroot (which I also locally patched to do zfs on
cgd as well) but it should be straightforward to adapt to zfsroot.
